Design details

MADE IN FRANCE
All of our ropes are designed and tested at our headquarters in Chamonix, in the Mont Blanc valley. They are made in the North of France, in our advanced partner factory Cousin in textile braiding for the last 170 years.
HOW TO CHECK YOUR VERTIKA ROPE
It is important to check your rope regularly. To do so, run the rope through your hands and inspect it metre by metre along its entire length. This will allow you to spot any nicks, cuts, abrasion or weak points. If you notice any anomalies or irregularities, if the core is visible in certain places, if the rope is deformed or has exceeded its fall rating, it must no longer be used.
WEIGHT (standard EN 892)
The weight is 58 g/m. The weight is measured according to the EN 892 standard. For a single rope, the rope must be exposed to 10 kg of tension for 1 minute in very precise temperature and moisture conditions. This gives you the real weight of the rope, which is often superior to the weight given by the standard. But the standard allows us to compare ropes objectively.
HOW IS VERTIKA ROPE DESIGNED FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE OVER TIME?
Our designers have reinforced the resistance of the sheath by densifying it and braiding it with a smoother structure to reduce friction. The core and sheath are drawn together using a plasma process. This binds them more effectively and ensures that the rope remains supple over time. Warning: the suppleness can make this rope difficult to brake for beginner belayers. We also recommend regularly checking the tightness of the knot.
HOW TO WASH YOUR VERTIKA ROPE
It’s important to properly care for your rope to reduce wear. Dirt ages rope. We recommend: 1- Use a rope bag at the foot of the routes. 2- If the rope is dirty, wash it with clean, lukewarm water. Should stains persist and you want to wash it with soap, it is important to use a pH-neutral soap (such as Marseille/household soap) and then rinse thoroughly with clean water. 3- Air dry the rope out of the sun and away from all sources of heat.
HOW TO STORE YOUR VERTIKA ROPE
Ropes should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from light, humidity, and corrosive agents. Never leave ropes inside a car during summer, for example.
POSSIBLE CHANGES TO THE LENGTH OF VERTIKA ROPE OVER TIME
As they get older, all climbing ropes get shorter. This generally ranges from 2 to 5%, but can go up to 10% depending on humidity, heat, falls, washing, etc. To reduce this effect, we provide an extra length margin in production, but we recommend that you measure your rope regularly and verify the location of the marking in the middle of the rope.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS (standard EN 892)
They are measured and validated in the laboratory by a certification body in accordance with standard EN 892: Number of falls: 6 Impact force: 8.6 KN Sheath percentage: 35.4% Dynamic elongation: 30.9% Static elongation: 5% Sheath slippage: 1 mm
THE VERTIKA ROPE HAS A CENTRE MARKING
To improve your safety, this rope features a black mark which indicates the middle of the rope. We recommend always checking the length of the route before climbing as well as tying a knot at the end of the rope.
CERTIFICATION
EN 892 certified rope UIAA 101 certified rope
DOPE-DYE COLOURING
Our designers have chosen to colour the threads of the sheath using “Dope dye” technology (the threads in the core are not dyed). This technology adds colour pigments as early as the manufacturing stage, before the strands are braided. This method stands out from traditional dyeing techniques by reducing the amount of water needed and the amount of waste water discharged from the dyeing baths.
